AHA/BHA

AHA stands for Alpha Hydroxy Acid while BHA stands for Beta Hydroxy Acid. Both of these are useful ingredients when it comes to micro peeling, meaning that your skin will be peeling off dead skin cells in a microscopic level. It’s excellent when it comes to keeping pores unclogged and brightening skin. It is also good at fading old spots caused by healed acne or blemish marks. AHA and BHA creams are to be used only at night because they can cause photosensitivity or sensitivity to light, making you more susceptible to sun damage. Therefore, use a sun screen or sun block in the day time.
